The Community Support Group is a bridge to understanding the “whole child” and the fact that we all learn differently as reflected in our Different Abilities Development Model. The group was established in 2008 to introduce parents and professionals to the Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS) approach developed by Dr. Ross W. Greene for working together with young people who have difficulty meeting expextations and may exhibit challenging behavior.
